It is no secret that Broome stands out as one of the most stunning and sought-after tourist destinations in Australia. It brings to the table a wonderful collection of landscapes, activities as well as ambiences that make it truly irresistible for locals and travellers alike!
Waterfalls have always been an object of awe and admiration but while people will typically expect the water to cascade vertically, Broome has managed to become the home of the 'horizontal falls.
With the name given due to how water accelerates between a narrow gap between two hills, this site is well worth taking a flight to view or even taking a boat ride! This is typically a full day affair and is a great outing for people of all ages!
If you are staying at any of the Broome hotels in the area, such as the Oaks Cable Beach Resort, simply speak to the front desk and they may be able to assist you with coordinating a tour for you.
It is a well-known fact that Broome has some of the most stunning beach landscapes found anywhere in the world, but if you were to take a trip to Riddell Beach, you will likely feel like you have landed in the middle of an alien planet.
Covered in red-hued rock formations, this location is ideal for an evening get together right on time to catch a spectacular sunset!
While on the topic of beaches, Broome also has a location that is referred to as 'Dinosaur Beach' due to the fossilized footprints of dinosaurs that have been discovered along the shoreline. This site is well worth a visit, especially with kids, for a once in a lifetime opportunity.
While not the most energetic activity, the waters off the coast of Broome are just perfect for fishing excursions! Take a few friends, some beer, set up a barbeque and you are bound to have an amazing time trying your hand at catching some Barramundi or salmon. While there is a good chance you may walk away with no fish caught, you will certainly make plenty of treasured memories on such outings!
One of the most iconic locations in Broome is the Gantheaume Point. This location is known for the stunning viewpoints it offers and the vast expanse of the sapphire blue ocean that surrounds it. With a little walk through the paths, you will find yourself among the rock formations that are easily recognizable from any of the pictures that can be found of the location!
Yes, you have heard, Broome is the home of 'Broome's Crazy Crab Race' which takes place every Sunday and is one of the most entertaining and light-hearted events that take place. This is a brilliant event to visit with friends and family with the proceeds for the event being channelled towards various charity organizations as well.
